A look inside Argonaut's HQ

I was going through old EGM's and found this picture. Looks pretty shabby if you ask me, and it's hard to see any particular hardware, but I thought perhaps someone on this board would find this interesting.

 

They had a webcam feature on their site back in 2002-2004 or so. Never really worked for long, but it sure looked better than the pic above

 

Who ate all the pies?

 

Judging by the size of the rotund employee shown in the picture, I guess it was him!

 

While I'm thinking about it (and it's kind of on-topic ), was there ever a Super Nintendo prototype of FX Fighter discovered? I remember a few screen shots, but that's all.

I know the game sucked, too, before anyone says anything. I have the PC version .

 

Wasn't that a PC-FX game?

 

As well, I think.

 

That's an Amiga 2000 there just left of center, I'd recognize one of those almost anywhere. Complete with original keyboard and mouse but some weird non-Commodore monitor that I don't recognize.

 

That's right, but I don't think it was made by Argonaut, FX Fighter on the FX never came out sadly, it is said that it later became Battle Heat.

For more information have a look at http://www.pcenginefx.com/PC-FX/html/pc-fx_world_-_f_r_-_fx_fighter.html

There's information on the game and even a video.

Ah, okay. I could've sworn I saw something on FX Fighter being developed for the SNES. It was awhile ago, though, so I understand how I may have gotten it confused.

 

I think they must have decorated for that picture. From my one visit there, I remember it looking a lot less tidy.
:-D
